Opinion | Real problem in our country is alcohol

We have a real problem in this country we live in today, and I call it the No. 1 killer: alcohol.

Other people want to blame guns and other things. Truth is, people kill people and not guns; drugs kill, and what do we have in this country today? Every state now is making marijuana legal to smoke so people can get high, drive and maybe kill someone, go figure.

But no one will talk about the real killer is this country and that’s alcohol. Every day someone young and old dies from alcohol in this country, and yet they make it around the clock every day, and why? Because it is worth more money than people’s lives.

God help us!
